We'll see Dis. Are you aware that the majority of the school books in this country come from Texas and the content of these books is developed there? I didn't. I learned this only a few days ago when I also learned that Texas was changing their books to reflect creationism and christian family values. This information will now become part of the standard curriculum. All of this done quietly and efficiently. And I might add, having developed curriculum for a government institution, that there is a long process that you have to go through to get this done, so it has been happening behind the scenes for a while now. That was shocking to me and was part of my reasoning for the predictions in the other thread. So is it surprising that Wisconsin will make this change? Nope. Not after hearing that the books have already been printed and are there for delivery, all because of the change initiated in Texas.

What exactly are you trying to say? Because most schoolbooks are printed in Texas they are going to be inundated with creationism?
Seems pretty flimsy to me. Maybe you should try and point out a clear connection because I just don't understand what you're suggesting. What Texas decision are you referring to? [/b][/quote]
Here's the story in print. I heard it on NPR so it was a little different than what is printed.
